December 12, 2012 - Bigger than expected. Big fruit filled nose. Big fruit with stone, melon, pear, peach with some grass & herbal notes. Strong acid bite. Big mouthfeel and medium bodied. Not what I would expect, but a nice wine.

May 28, 2012 - 5/28--30/2012 Light (but not too pale) yellow. Nice, bigger-than-expected nose (but can't quite identify it). Some body with a nice bit of roundness. A bit of a bite toward the end. Lingers a bit (maybe some tartness?). Enjoyable parts, but it doesn't quite all come together. 87--88 pts.

June 29, 2011 - Aromas of citrus and some tropical fruit. Crisp and tart citrusy fruit with some mineral on the palate. Very crisp and refreshing with a long finish. Well made but sauv blanc is just not our thing. I'd recommend it to those that are into it though!!
